Google ads not working (AMP problem?)

Hello.
I had the adsense and AMP plugins on my website before I purchased and installed the GP Premium theme. They were working normally, but since I installed the new theme no ads are showing.
- I installed the AMP for GeneratePress plugin
- cleaned the cache
- tested with other themes
The problem seems to be on the theme compatibility with AMP itself.
Forgot to mention:
the site also got considerably slower with the AMP plugin activated — which is odd.
I deactivated the AMP plugin for now, until I find a solution.
Hi there,
Can you include a link to your site in the private information so we can see the issue?
Thanks!
Hello.
Sorry, completly forgot.
Hi there,
i am seeing this error in the browser developers console:
TagError: adsbygoogle.push() error: Only one 'enable_page_level_ads' allowed per page.
Can you check your ad setup to make sure you're not making more than one of the same ad request.
Hello.
I noticed that I had this duplicated code on Header.php.
I left only one ad request now, but I think I'm still having the same issues.
I am still seeing that same TagError - can you check for other codes / plugins that may be place ads.
Hello, David.
I deactivated the Quick adsense plugin and I think the the website does not have that tagError anymore.
Sorry about this.
Can you take a look again?
Thank you!
Hi there,
What are we looking for here, exactly? I took a look and ads are showing up normally. I added ?amp to the URL and the ads continue to display.
The theme itself isn't able to prevent ads from showing if the code is added correctly - it's just javascript and HTML.
Let us know :)
Hi Tom.
Don't know what happening, but when I activate the AMP plugin, all the ads stop showing.
I deactivated the plugin for now, so I don’t lose revenue, but as soon as I activate it, the ads disappear from the website.
It might be my mistake, but with the “AMP for GeneratePress” plugin, do I need any other plugin to enable amp on my website?
That's all you should need from the theme side of things.
However, this may help: https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/9187239?hl=en
I think the AMP for GeneratePress plugin is not enabling AMP. I tested the website on Google’s search console and it says that the website is not an AMP and does not link to any AMP pages.
AMP for GeneratePress simply integrates some of the GP options with the AMP plugin - it doesn't have the ability to prevent the functionality of the official plugin from working.
Just to confirm, you're using this plugin, right?: https://wordpress.org/plugins/amp/
Oh, I see.
Thats right. I’m using this AMP plugin (is deactivated now because of this issue)
Did you look into AMP-specific ads (the link I posted above)?
